About me

Professionally Speaking: I am National Board Certified Teacher with expertise in curriculum differentiation to meet needs of learners at all levels. I enjoy working with gifted students and helping them to spread their wings and fly! I've been a Cobb County educator for 11 years--1 year teaching Gifted kids at Mt. Bethel, 7 years teaching fourth graders at Eastvalley, and 3 years teaching first graders at Keheley.

I'm almost finished with my doctoral degree in Teaching and Learning, concentrating on gifted education, I'm also interested in the efficacy of different forms of math instruction, and culturally responsive teaching.

Fun Facts:

I grew up in Rochester, NY and went to college at the University of Buffalo.

I ran cross-country and track in high school and still run today.

I learned to play tennis when I moved to Atlanta 16 years ago.

My husband Hans is an IT wizard, that's probably why I LOVE technology!

My son Josh graduated from Georgia State in Communication & Marketing.
